Job Summary

The Bellevue Botanical Garden (BBG) is an urban refuge, encompassing 53-acres of cultivated gardens, curated collections, restored woodlands, and natural wetlands. Since opening in 1992 the Bellevue Botanical Garden has grown significantly in its size and impact. Today, BBG welcomes around 500,000 visitors each year to learn about gardening and explore nature.
